Cannot remove custom keyboard shortcut

Hi Folks,
Somehow I managed to make my right SHIFT key a shortcut to my desktop (does not use a modifier key). I can't recall how i did this, but it is not in my Keyboard Shortcuts (i have gone through them all, restored to defaults, removed them... nothing worked.)
Using Mavericks.
Any ideas how i might remove this keyboard shortcut?
Many thanks in advance.

Thanks a bunch Barney-15E

  • Create custom keyboard shortcuts

    1.  How do I create a custom keyboard shortcut so that I can toggle between two fonts, say, or two keyboards (English and Greek) quickly within a single document....
    I am trying to make the switch fm msw to pages, but I cannot for the life of me locate these options. 

    Feature unavailable for the fonts.
    If you have only the two keyboard layouts available, there is a shortcut defined at system level to switch between them :
    command + space

  • Custom Keyboard Shortcuts Not Working In Layer Style / Blending Options Dialogue Box (Mac OS 10.6.8)

    In the Layer Style / Blending Options dialogue box, my custom Keyboard Shortcuts to zoom in and out of the image is no longer working. Cmd+opt+shift+1 acts as cmd+1 (jumps to Drop Shadow), and cmd+opt+shift+0 acts as cmd+0 (jumps to Stroke). Outside of this box the commands seem to be working fine.
    Example 1: Create a new RGB document, cmd+j the background layer, double-click this layer to open the Layer Style / Blending Options dialogue box, mash Cmd+opt+shift+1.
    Result 1: The dialogue box shift focus to the Drop Shadow Options instead of the image zooming in to 100%.
    Expected Result 1: The image should zoom to 100%.
    Example 2: Create a new RGB document, cmd+j the background layer, double-click this layer to open the Layer Style / Blending Options dialogue box, mash Cmd+opt+shift+0.
    Result 2: The dialogue box shift focus to the Stroke Options instead of the image zooming to “Fit on Screen”.
    Expected Result 2: The image should zoom to “Fit on Screen”.
    This same thing happened in the CS5 Beta, and it was quickly fixed, so I hope this is not a complicated issue.
    Thanks, and keep up the wonderful work!

  • Custom keyboard shortcuts and editing multiple layers in Flash CS4

    Hi, all -
    CS3 -> CS4 transition newb here who's getting increasingly frustrated with the new motion tweens; however, for this project, I'm working in a 3D space and require using them, so I'm dealing with this bit by painful bit. I found the tip about Split Motion, but first question: how do you apply Split Motion across several layers at the same time? I have six different tweens, and in CS3, I used to be able to shift-click or click-drag across frames and apply a command to all of them (for example, hit F5 to add frames), but Split Motion is requiring me to right-click on each and every layer. This is really laborious, and I worry about future animations that might be more complex.
    Similarly, I tend to add custom keyboard shortcuts to each of my Flash versions for commands I use frequently and don't want to right-click a menu for (such as "add motion tween") - however, I can't seem to find where to create a custom shortcut for either that, or Split Motion.
    Any and all help would be appreciated as I muddle through this. Honestly, guys, I WANT to like the new version and there's so many added features, but it's hampering my workflow so bad I want to pummel it with sticks.

    Hey there,
    I definitely hear you about Split Motion. There is an enhancement request for supporting multiple layers, and adding it as a keyboard shortcut. The first one is tricky, but the second one is not. I think there was hope that splitting motions wouldn't be necessary much (especially since you have to be careful when doing so when eases are involved), which is why the eventual need for more functionality related to split motion was realized a bit late in the schedule.
    Now regarding other operations, such as you mentioned F5 to insert frames - that and other operations (inserting certain types of property keyframes, F6, and so on) work just fine.
    You can apply a shortcut to Create Motion Tween in the custom keyboard shortcut dialog.  Not all operations in the program are available though (most context menu items aren't), which is why unfortunately why we don't see Split Motion yet.
    It might be possible to avoid Split Motion though with another workflow. What are you using the feature for?  Just curious in case I can help.
    Jen.

  • On my iPad mini, I cannot save any keyboard shortcut. Any clue ?

    I would like to know how to save shortcuts on iPad mini.
    I'm using this feature on iPhone and iPad, and its pretty useful.
    On my new iPad mini, I cannot save any keyboard shortcut. They disappear each time I try to create another one...
    Is it a known bug in 6.0.2 ?

    what i hate when that happens to other apps like if you use trillian or IM+ i cant paste anything, to go through all that trouble frustrates me.

  • Custom keyboard shortcut to merge cells in Numbers?

    How do I create custom keyboard shortcut to merge cells in Numbers? The instructions on the support site say to open Keyboard in preferences then click the +. I don't see a plus anywhere. On any menu.

    The Merge Cell command does not have a keyboard short cut.  You can, however, add one to your user space as follows:
    Open System Preferences, then select the keyboard panel:
    On the left click the "Application Shortcut" then on the right select Numbers.  now click the "+"
    Now enter the exact name of the menu item "Merge Cells" (by looking up the name of the menu item in the menus of Numbers), then selec the "Keyboard Shortcut" field and type the exact key combination you want to use.  Be sure it is unique from other Numbers key combination.

  • Custom keyboard shortcuts for Liquify and Vanishing Point filter interfaces in Photoshop CS4?

    Is there a way to set custom keyboard shortcuts for Liquify and Vanishing Point filter interfaces in Photoshop CS4? When I change my keyboard shortcuts preferences for Photoshop, they don't change for these filter interfaces. Is there another way?

    what is the problem ??
    I tried to change the shortcut for the Vanishing Point and Liquify from
    Edit -> keyboard shortcuts(button) -> keyboard shortcuts (tab) -> filter (tab)
    and you will find these filters :
    double click on it and make a new shortcut
    but it MUST be Ctrl + (any letter) or you can make it Ctrl + Alt + (any letter)
    but if you made it just one lettre like S for example
    you will can't make a shortcut.
    hope I understood what you ment ???

  • Safari 5.1 customized keyboard shortcut not working

  • Mac Mail custom keyboard shortcuts won't work

    I'm using Mac Mail, trying to set keyboard shortcuts to set flags
    - I goto preferences/keyboard/application shortcuts
    - click on "+" to add shortcut
    - specify Mail shortcut in dropdown menu
    - add 6 different shotrcuts OPT/CMD-_ (where _ is: L S V F R P)
    - when I added the shortcut, i was very careful to make sure the MENU TITLE of the shortcut in  OS-X preferences paine is the same as the
    Then, in Mail app, reading a message, I press the shortcut (ex: OPT/CMD-L), and the flag is not set

    I'm having this exact same problem with Mail.app on Mavericks, and my workaround is exactly the same.  Doesn't it sort of defeat the whole purpose of keyboard shortcuts if I have to grab my mouse to expose the relevant menu?!  Very frustrating.  Does anyone know how to either 1) find a better workaround on our end or 2) convince Apple to fix the problem?
    #2 seems unlikely since custom keyboard shortcuts is probably a pretty rarely used feature...

  • Transfer customized keyboard shortcuts to second Mac?

    I have set up many custom keyboard shortcuts (both system-wide and for specific applications) in the Keyboard Settings panel. Instead of defining them all again, I would like to transfer these to a second Mac that I just purchased.
    I assume this would require copy & paste from a plist file in Preferences - but I couldn't find the right one. Any ideas?
    Thank you!

    The application specific shortcuts are most likely stored in the applications plist file.
    Have a look in com.apple.systempreferences.plist for the system wide ones.
    If that fails use the trick arthur wrote above.

  • Custom keyboard shortcuts

    Hi, I just installed arch and I'd really like to get this one thing working:
    how can i define custom keyboard shortcuts, say I want a script to run when I press <ctrl><alt>T  ?
    I defined a few shortcuts in GNOME but they are all predefined and I couldn't see how to point to custom apps like scripts.
    Please share your thoughts  : )

    E.g. I want to bind one of my mouse keys to act like Alt+Left mouse button (so I can use it to drag windows).
    Is it possible?
    I have only ever used imwheel for tasks like that.
    That almost works. Thing is I can't somehow "tell" imwheel to keep the simulated buttons pressed until I release the real one.
    What a shame.

  • Moving/copying custom keyboard shortcuts

    Hi,
    I have PremierPro CS5 running on a MACBook Pro. I have created a load of custom keyboard shortcuts and basically want to copy this file over to another edit machine I work on.
    is this possible!.
    thanks in advance
    Russel

    Yes, I'm aware of these keyboard shortcuts to move the cursor around and for selecting text. But I want to move the actual paragraphs around. So if I have 5 paragraphs, I want to use keyboard shortcuts to more paragraph 3 in front of paragraph 1. Not by selecting the text, cutting the text, moving the curser, and pasting the text.
    In OpenOffice I could set a keyboard shortcut (CtrlShift^) to move the current paragraph above or below the surrounding paragraphs. Is this possible?

  • Customized keyboard shortcuts for microsoft Word not working

    Hi,
    My Macbook Pro retina 15' with an updated Yosemite iOS 10.10.1 has an american keyboard. I am trying to create keyboard shortcuts for brazilian accent marks to use in Microsoft Word. I went to "system preferences", "keyboard", "shortcuts", "App Shortcuts", added Microsoft Word and, for the brazilian accent mark " ˜ ", which in the original keyboard is obtained with "option+n", I set the shortcut "option+left arrow".
    It just does not work. I created other shortcuts for other brazilian accent marks with the other arrows + control but none of them worked.
    Can anyone tell me what went wrong?
    Thanks!

    Amy~ Yep the lasso tool was what I verified with another user. 'L' seems to be bound indefinitely to loop through different types of lasso tools and it was annoying them because they just wanted L to be the regular freehand lasso. I removed 'L' from being an option on the polygon lasso and even set it explicitly to SHIFT+L as well as set the lasso tool to a completely different keyboard combo. 'L' still cycled through lassos haha. It needs some fixes.
    fertolg~ At least you have a workaround for now. I'd go nuts if I couldn't use keyboard text selection writing code, oy! You're welcome and if you're all set please mark correct so we can filter unanswered. Good luck!

  • Can't remove a keyboard shortcut

    When I press option-F14 I get Displays System Preference. I don't know why. And I don't want it.
    It's even more powerful than QuicKeys!
    I'd like to remove this feature, so I'm trying to figure out which application may cause this behavior.
    Up to now, I can exclude: Keyboard Shortcut System Preference, QuicKeys, Butler, You Control, LaunchBar, Quicksilver, PathFinder .,..
    Or is this a hidden feature of Mac OS X that can't be removed?

    STry going to system preferences>dashboard $ expose. You can set preferences for that key there.

  • Cannot Open Premiere Keyboard Shortcuts

    I cannot open Keyboard Shortcuts on Premiere v8 on Cloud (just installed yesterday!) - I get no dialog box when I go to Premiere Pro -> Keyboard Shortcuts. Nothing. I am on Mac OS 10.8.3 and cleared my Cloud Sync settings, to no avail. What I am trying to do is customize my shortcuts to enable a dang marker on a clip within a timeline, since I hear that's the only way it can be done. Thank You!  Meg
